It seems that options that grip comes up with oggenc are not in sync with actual oggenc lines. When I start up grip on a default run, it didnt install the information for Artist, Album and other data recieved from CDDB. It also didnt seem to 'take' the values I put in for bitrate, etc. In order to 'change' this I went to Config->MP3 and changed from oggenc to other and back to oggenc. This caused the correct options to be placed in the line of : -o %o -a "%A" -l "%d" -t "%n" %f This still didnt seem to allow the bit rate to be set, so I added the following: -b 512 -m 490 -M 576 I am guessing I needed to have a -b %b or soemthing similar... but it works :). The problem occurs after I removed all the grip config files and started over again with a fresh user. It also persisted after I upgraded to the RPMS on the RHN beta-server.
Fixed in 2.96-2. The bitrate probably still won't get passed, which is a good thing... with oggenc, you really want to be using -q <quality> instead. That will probably get fixed in a newer grip (the one we're shipping is a little old.)
